The freedom of The Sims 3 will inspire you with endless possibilities and amuse you with unexpected moments of surprise and mischief.
New Seamless, Open Neighbourhood—Explore the neighbourhood freely. [/u] Your Sims can roam throughout their neighbourhood, visit neighbours’ homes, and explore the surroundings. They can stroll downtown to hang out with friends, meet someone new at the park, or run into colleagues on the street. If your Sims are in the right place at the right time, who knows what might happen?! New Create A Sim—Create any Sim you can imagine.New easy-to-use design tools allow for unlimited customisation to make truly individual Sims. Determine your Sims’ shape and size, from thin to full-figured to muscular—and everything in between!

New Realistic Personalities—Every Sim is a unique person, with a distinct personality.[/u] Create realistic Sims with distinctive personalities. Select from dozens of personality traits and combine them in fun ways. The combination of traits you choose—brave, artistic, loner, perfectionist, klepto, romantic, clumsy, paranoid, and much, much more—help shape the behaviour of your Sims and how they interact with other Sims. Your Sims can now rise above their basic set of every day needs. They are complex individuals with unique personalities. New Unlimited Customisation—Everyone can customise everything![/u] Build your dream house or design the ultimate home. Customise everything from floors to flowers, shirts to sofas, wallpaper to window shades. It’s fun and easy to change colors and patterns giving you endless personalisation options. Or you can populate your Sims’ neighbourhood with pre-designed buildings and furnishings. Which of your Sims will live in high-end mansions, cool bachelor pads, ultimate dream homes or low-cost cottage? ~*~*~*~*~*~
This thread will serve as the place where all the latest news will be posted - if you wish to discuss it, feel free to make your own thread (just try and avoid duplicates).
I'd like to ask you NOT to post on here unless you have obtained a piece of news about TS3.
Thank you, happy Simming![/center]

Snooty sims has posted detailed descriptions of The Sims 3 www.snootysims.com/thesims3index.php?id=infoThere are many things that are changing, but surprisingly there is still a decent amount of things that are staying. (such as 7 age groups... joy) The Sims 2 Resource also has some more information on TS3. There are a few points about the specific age groups too. Check it out here: www.thesimsresource.com/article/sims3That's all for now. Enjoy everyone. *The Sims 2 Resource and Snooty Sims repeat each other a little |

New Info! Recently there has been talk of a possible delay for the sims 3. Some news feeds have come up with delays for May or possibly June. However, we will not know anything until an official statement is released by EA. Rumors have been posted about the statement being released on the 3rd. So, when that information is released we will let everyone know on Cookie Fest. That's all for now!  |

I am sorry to have to ask this...but is that from the 'leaked' copy or did you get the game already?
As if its the 'leaked' then the pics will have to removed. We dont want to get into trouble for supporting the pirated copy.
Sorry to have to ask, but better safe then sorry.

Not a worry Shell. I wouldn't put CF at risk like that. A mate of mine runs the local EB Games, and he 'accidentally' gave me my pre-ordered copy early...
Loving the diagonal placement and seamless neighbourhood. Also triangle floor tiles are a welcome addition.
The new C-a-S is great, with the ability to change face widths and such, although I haven't played with it much yet.
So far it's not giving up any clues about custom content aside from the 'Downloads' folder in My Documents. I'll be playing with it today to at least try to import custom materials for the ingame 'Create-a-Style' customising tool, but I'm not holding my breath. The modders out there have a task and a half ahead of them before we get to see custom content, as the file system looks to be different from TS2
